Make a Fabric Cover for a Composition Notebook

Make a Fabric Cover for a Composition Notebook - Glam it UP!

Have you been wondering what kind of gift you could create for someone in school or college, or perhaps your neighbor, workmate, caregiver, or friend?

With a little fabric and some glam adventure, you could create a shabby chic composition notebook cover as I did. And if you're not into shabby chic, design an original cover idea.

Here is a video that shows how to easily construct a fabric cover.

This is exactly how I created mine. With the exception that I completely finished the decorations on the front fabric panel before completing the other steps. Once you sew the layers together and turn the cover inside out, the decorations pop out to adorn your cover.

The other great thing about this project is that you can make it from scraps of fabric, lace, and trim.

Start a Love Affair With Street Food

On my bucket list is a world tour for the sole purpose of sampling as many kinds of street foods as possible. What is Street Food Street food is ready-to-eat food or drinks sold by a hawker, or vendor, in a street or other public place, such as at a market or fair. They often sell it from a portable food booth, food cart, or food truck and is meant for immediate consumption. Wikipedia Street Food Heritage Throughout time, there has always been a vendor selling ready-made bread, cheeses, desserts, and other culinary delights. However, in more recent times, street food vendors have often come from immigrant cultures looking for a means of income or the love of sharing their native cuisine. Then, fast-food chains populated the streets and independent street food vendors became harder to find, especially where I live in the US. However, in other parts of the world, street food is common and easily found. What draws me and others to the street food experience? Adventure — who doesn’t l...

The Other Side - Short Story

A thoughtless girl pushes the limit of belief too far... He crossed the last two moss-covered stones at the edge of the wide creek and planted his feet on the solid earthen bank. Shivering from the effects of his clumsiness and subsequent dunking, he did what he could to shake the water from his clothes. The dawn’s amber light slashed through the forest’s canopy and pooled around him, exposing him to further humiliation as he swiped at the frigid water dripping from his hair. “Trayjan, you are the most inept boy of my acquaintance. Why did I choose to share my adventures with one of so few skills…Oh well, it can’t be helped. Please try to keep your footing. If you fall into the water again you’ll surely freeze before we reach the cave and I’ll have to waste my afternoon burying you.” Her laughter, as she extolled his incompetence to every woodland creature, filled his soul with a deeper chill, one that penetrated his heart. Princess Veela, the youngest daughter of King Ryman of C...
